Mia swung her blade in a wide arc, aiming straight for Selene's neck. The razor-sharp edge sliced through the air with a deadly whistle—it looked like the next second would end in blood and silence.
Selene barely managed to raise her sword in time, blocking the strike. The clash of steel rang out with a piercing screech.
Genesis Biotech's weapons weren't half bad, but Selene, as a speed-type Awakener, lacked raw strength. The impact sent a jolt through her arms, her palms going numb. Her tachi nearly flew from her grip.
Meanwhile, Slade was already wounded—blood soaked half his body, painting him crimson. He'd just clawed his way back from death's door and was completely rattled, nerves shot to hell.
Right now, he was terrified of Mia. Absolutely terrified.
The woman in front of him was a goddamn lunatic—her attacks were vicious, merciless.
